After frequent requests, this site is now reachable as a Tor hidden service through an onion address:

As well as adding another means of censorship resistance, a hidden service gives an alternative trust path that doesn’t rely on certificate authorities nor DNS infrastructure.

In case government decided to hunt and shut it down, others might want to archive it as well.

Obviously, as stated, the main reason is to resist censorship.
